I have a question, I recently bought Ninja Gaiden from a seller in australia, I just got it today and after inspecting it I noticed that instead of an instruction booklet there was an instruction fold out sheet instead, is that how it's supposed to be?

Yep Australian games made by Ozisoft are like that. Since they had no need to accommodate other languages than Englsih, the manuals were a lot smaller and could fit on a single sheet. You'll probably notice that the box is slimmer and the cartridge textured too.

Yes I did notice the size of the box as well, had I known this I might have not bought it from there but as long as it's pal I suppose that's all that matters. Thanks for the info. :|

Yeah, incredible stuff what some retro games are going for now. I know it isn't helpful saying this but I remember when that game was going for £30ish on a good day :S


I am selling my copy of Championship Hockey along with a few other rarities! I'm asking £180 posted for it!

When i was collecting sms back in 2005-2006, there were only 9-10 known copies, someone found them in a second hand store in the czech republic a few years before that. It regularly sold for £500+ at the time.

Now this guy from italy has had a whole case of 24, surely the value must drop as there are a lot more copies knocking around.

This Championship Hockey game, i remember getting that one quite early on, got it in a bundle. I used to buy huge bundles all the time, lots with 30, 40 & 50 games etc... this way i got all the rarest stuff out of the way and condition swapped all the booklets and sleeves until every game was mint. When i sold the hockey game, it went for maybe £15 at auction.

Now someone wants £180 for the hockey game? Whatever has happened to sms collecting in the past 5 years! I was planning on recollecting the whole library but not at these prices im not. Buggy Run & Masters Of Combat were the rarest aside from smurfs 2, and those were £50 each complete when they came up!
